I've heard another horror story.Blogger has completely deleted a person's posts.Years of work, completely gone.VanishedLostMore terrifying than watching the shower scene fromPsycho on Halloween....in the dark....by yourself.But, there is good news:You can back up your blog.Carina of Carina's Craftblog gives STEP-BY-STEP instructions for downloading your own blog into your own files HEREShe even teaches us how to save our templates.It was easy.I just backed up my files a few minutes ago.And I plan on repeating the procedure often.Guess who will be sleeping better tonight?Thank you Carina!Have YOU backed up your blog?

Oh yes, horror!!! I learned about this from somewhere last year but haven't done anything about it. I'll go check out what she instructs and get mine backed up! This is something I had not ever though about!

I'm not surprised Blogger is doing that; there is an unbelievable amount of stuff out there in cyberspace and a lot of it should be ditched anyway! They could have done a survey though, to see which blogs are still active, and only delete the ones that haven't been used for some time, like a year.
